Didascalia Apostolorum With Comments

About this audiobook
This book is an ancient work, dating back to approximately 300 AD. It was probably written in Syria, where Christianity was growing strongly in the first centuries of the Christian era. The book is also a pseudepigraphic work because it claims to have been written by the apostles to guide the church in its administration. However, it is a book of great historical value because it reveals what the church was like in the first centuries. We see that some things are very emphatic in those days, such as the fact that there were only two positions in the church [bishop or presbyter and deacon], that a good part of the money collected in the church was used to support widows, and that salaries were paid to church leaders. There were dissident groups that focused on keeping the Law of Moses. Another thing we notice when reading this work was that Christians were concerned with living a holy life and there was not much concern with theology. Even so, we see clear theological concepts such as the triunity of God and eternal hell for the damned. This book Didascalia should not be confused with the DIDACHE, the latter being the oldest Christian literature, dating from the year 100 AD and the Didascalia from the year 300. The Didascalia contains much more content than the Diddache. But both follow the same principle of ideas. Widows are treated in the Didascalia almost as an ecclesiastical office. We see in Acts 6 that the office of deacon was created to care for widows. The social care
